::Off to Elfrida::

We went down to Elfrida this weekend to visit Kevin's parents.  Kevin and his dad took the girls up to The Granets right after we got there on Friday.  They were so excited to ride in the back of Grandpa's truck like big kids!




Just hangin' out back at Grandma and Grandpa's house!


The kids LOVE the swings!


And they had a great time checking out Grandpa's garden.
Barrett especially liked the can of water he found...and then so did the girls!


Yesterday morning, Kevin and I went shooting with his dad.  I have to admit...I quite enjoy the power of having a gun in my hands!  And I am a pretty good marksman, if I do say so myself! :-)


 We, of course, cannot go to Grandma and Grandpa's without riding horses.  Their neighbors are so kind to let us do so each and every time we go! And the kids love it.  This time was especially exciting because the white horse had had a baby since the last time we visited and so the girls were THRILLED to see the foal.


Decorating cookies with Grandma...I won't even try to guess how many cookies were consumed during this process!!  But we all had fun, and that's what matters!


I had to put all 4 of these pictures...it just makes me laugh to see the evidence of how difficult it is to get all kids looking at the camera and smiling at the camera at the same time.  Pretty much impossible in our family!!


My hottie Mister with our handsome Bubba!
I sure love these men of mine!


I caught this tender moment where Grandpa was reading Payton a story!  I'm so glad my kids are close with both sets of Grandparents and that they look forward to each time they get to see them!


Thanks Dale & Marial for a fun visit!
